"This album for me is pure nostalgia. Loved the Inspirals." Reply
"Shortlisted for album of the year at the Grammys in 2005. The winner was Genius Loves Company by Ray Charles & Various Artists" Reply
"Just slightly short of the classic, Live!, album. Still, this is an excellent live document of Bob Marley at the peak of his powers. Very, very good." Reply
"Another mellow laid back album from J.J.Cale. Troubadour, adds brass to his already relaxed grooves. Good songs in, cocaine, travellin' light, and, hey baby. Cool stuff." Reply

"Great lyrical content and production value. How can you go wrong with P.E? I am not one of those guys who say that Old School Rap is better than what is out now. But no current rapper can hold a candle to these guys. This album was made in the late 80s and still hold up strongly. I highly recomme..." [+] Reply
